Today is Thursday, April 7. Here are five things you need to know:
Not too shabby: Sunny today with highs in the upper 40’s.
Quite the little helper: The cutie planting flags in the photo running with today’s column is Lola Velic. Her mom and family members are taking part in Sunday’s Walk MS event in Cambridge, and Lola wanted to help out by decorating with the flags. Good luck to the team this weekend, and if you want to donate toward the cause, visit their team page here.
